to decide. Tomorrow another two matches between At.Bilbao - Sporting
Gijon & Mallorca - Real Betis.
A top game played tonight with plenty of goals that saw VALENCIA CF
comeback & turn the result around against SEVILLA CF.
DAVID VILLA scored first in the 5th min to allow Valencia to start
well, however Sevilla reacted & turned up the gears to dominate. Seville´s
hard work paid off via LUIS FABIANO who equalized with a header
in the 53rd min. Sevilla continued to pile on the pressure & went
ahead via ADRIANO (below) in the 67th min. I looked like a done deal
until...
Then the turn around by Valencia in the last 15 mins, starting with
BARAJAS who equalized in the 83rd & MATA in the 86th min to
put Valencia ahead & take the 1º leg victory, finishing the match with
the 3-2 scoreline.
But this is a tricky scoreline, Sevilla have a 2 goal away advantage to
take back home & into the deciding 2ºleg game.
Two things, new Espanyol Coach Argentine & ex-Espanyol defender
Pochettino has injected discipline, grit & the hard work ethic into his
new team ESPANYOL, & second,FC BARCELONA went into this game
with its big names out or on the bench. The end result a 0-0 draw for this
1ºleg game.
The highlights, a very much improved Espanyol who will go away tonight
with a new injection of confidence. The 2ºleg will certainly see a better
armed Barça were we are sure Coach Guardiola will put on his "A side"
just in case, as Espanyol showed its teeth tonight Tweet
